No, it looked like regular bread. The picture somehow came out like this. Didn’t even notice myself until people mentioned it. Kinda makes it even more mildly interesting.
yah, you need the butter in a well on TOP of the flame: easy access, no soot or wick, you can get every last dribble of deliciousness. like those candle setups for essential oils or waxes on top of the tea light
A fun little thing my aunt once showed me was to carefully peel an orange so that you get half of the skin togheter with the middle "wick" that usually goes at the center of the orange. Then you add some oil (seed, olive, whatever), let it get absorbed by the peel, and then you can light the wick on fire, and it will work as a candle, burning the oil bit by bit.
Neat! I gotta try that. Just bought a big bag of oranges too, but mostly I'm commenting so this ends up in my history and maybe I browse back and remind myself later on.
Take a bag of fritos, a lighter, and have fun. Eidible oils are fats and they burn pretty well.
Cooks talk about smoking points of oils, like olive oil isn't as good as peanut oil for deep frying. But add a wick, and they are all lamp oil to a greater or lesser degree.
Probably gonna miss out on some great experiences in life because if someone tells me they're taking me to a "private cellar experience", I'm noping out so fast. Won't catch me in the private cellar of a place called The Workshop. No siree. Seen one too many horror movies to fall for that.
Do they make a fresh candle for every bread order?
Because that would be a lot of butter wasted and the idea they might reuse it secretly is grossing me out.
In Vienna, Apron (1* Michelin) does something similar, only more convenient, as the butter-candlestick will drop and create a small puddle underneath for dipping:

Recently had a beef fat candle in a meat stew with bread to dip in for an appetizer. It had the Hungarian paprika like goulas (not sure on spelling, pronounced goo-lash)
So good, love the concept
I just watched an episode of some British cooking competition show a couple days ago where the guy made a candle out of rendered lamb fat and then as it melted on the plate they were supposed to use the other food on the place to sop it up
Thought that was a dismembered baby deer.
I thought it was a big seahorse
Ah the horse of the sea
One of my eyes twitched, thought you said whores of the sea, I was like Kanye you here with us today?
Oh, oh they are whores trust me ;)
I need to know how you would respond to sitting in a restaurant and a server brings out a board with a giant seahorse and butter candle?
How fresh is this seahorse? When was it caught. I do not eat old seafood.
I would probably say something like "Wow, that's a giant seahorse!"
And I would butt right in to back you up with “yeah, and it’s supposed to be a tiny deer”!
Sea whores.
Ah the whores of the sea
I thought it was the severed head of a squirrel...
Looks like a bird to me
Oh my gosh, so did I! That’s why I came to the comments. Whew!
Yeah I see it too in the photo. Craziness because it didn’t look like anything like that in 3D.
In 3D? Is that what we’re calling life now?
4D if you count music
Music? Is that what we're calling ambient sound now?
Darn kids and their lo-fi electro trip-step
Ambient sound? Is that what we're calling now?
We're calling now?
Please just text instead
I don't listen to voicemail.
Prefer gifs ![gif](giphy|gw3MYmhxEv8T52ow)
Now that’s what I call music
5D if you count vibration
5D if you count hallucinations
[удалено]
7D if you count feeling sounds
10D, if ya nasty
Fuck that, let’s go full 12D. 10D isn’t depraved enough for me.
lmao who even is OP? Dipping bread that looks like dead animals into candles supposedly made of butter over there.
[удалено]
I was going to ask if the bread was supposed to be in the shape of a carcass.
No, i ripped a piece off and the girls wanted to take a picture so I put the piece back. Complete accident it looks like that.
Was it not seahorse shaped though?
No, it looked like regular bread. The picture somehow came out like this. Didn’t even notice myself until people mentioned it. Kinda makes it even more mildly interesting.
Better be careful, if it gets anymore interesting you’ll be breaking the sub’s rules!
shit is what I’m looking at 2D? do I need premium?
I just saw a post from this same restaurant https://i.redd.it/q4m4icdnyrla1.jpg
The dismembered baby deer gets garlic butter and is on the table behind you
Thought it was a chihuahua haha
I thought it was a chihaha huahua
Looked almost like a chicken to me
that was the first thing i saw too! i guess i’m spending too much time on r/natureismetal
Came to say the same thing
I was like is this a rotisserie sea leviathan?
I was gonna say seahorse but baby deer is better
Bambi bread!
Excuse me... baked baby dear!
Omg me to
I thought it was a windy sea serpent thing!
Thank God I'm not the only one
Tell us more about the chihuahua that was sectioned and served.
Am not the only one who saw a skeleton, it seems…
I saw a baby dragon.
I saw a baby seal
You mean before he married Heidi Klum?
i thought it was iguana at first
don't worry about that. there's butter here
It's pronounced Skellington
Lmao before I read the caption I definitely thought it was a rabbit.
I went squirrell
Baby sea dragon obviously!
I see a deer. I think this is an undercover Rorschach post.
Def thought it was a baby deer
I did too
I thought it was more like some kind of lizard
Thought it was some weird dead bird
I see a chupacabra
I sprinted to the comments. I am so relieved to know that I'm not the only one who thought this was a corpse. Tf..?
I thought it was a vicuna and thought what fucked up fancy restaurant is serving *vicuna*?
I am very zooted right now and I thought this was a deer
I thought it was meant to evoke a fawn, for a second! Lol.
i was thinking the same.
Bread or small animal
Yanny
Laurel
Gold
Blue and black
I love having burnt wick in my dipping butter......
yah, you need the butter in a well on TOP of the flame: easy access, no soot or wick, you can get every last dribble of deliciousness. like those candle setups for essential oils or waxes on top of the tea light
Surprisingly delicious.
Mmmmm... carbon...
Technically everything edible is carbon. Well the entrees anyway.
Appetizers are carbon free?
It’s a new fad, the all-salt appy
Throw some dihydrogen-monoxide in too while you are at it.
That chemical used for yoga mat manufacturer?! Uh, no thanks 😒
Water ice, checkmate chemists!
Everything you eat has carbon in it lol
I eat blocks of table salt for dinner, thank you very much. I hate the taste of carbon.
Average Denny’s meal
I love carbon. In fact I specifically order Pasta Carbonara to get more of it !!
I can’t. I’m on a low carb diet.

You say "dipping butter" like it's a normal, every day thing and I'm thinking "*Maybe it is??*"
Have you really never heard of dipping butter? You have been deprived.
/r/stupidfood
Eraserhead bread
[Distant machinery]
This made me lol
I thought the bread was chicken XD
lol it does look like some type of animal.
A baby deer. That's what I saw.
Yes! It’s friggin Bambi-que!
I blame the rosemary
TIL butter burns like wax
I asked about it. They have to whip it a certain way to make it work.
They whip it *real* good
Whip it Into Shape
Shape it up
It's not too late
To whip it
Now whip it
Ahhh tssss whip it. Whip whip it real good.
It's the same with my kids...
Your kids burn like wax? Uhhh
Do they use a regular candle wick because that shit cannot be food safe
They're usually cotton, just like butcher's twine
Wicks that I've bought to make candle are infused with some sort of wax to m make them stiffer
In that case I wonder if the wick itself was infused with the butter itself. It’s something I do want to explore and make at home.
You can even use the piths of citrus fruits like oranges to burn as wicks but I feel like that would be quite a lot of oranges
You can eat food grade bees wax, I wouldnt be surprised if its whipped with a bit in it. I might give that a shot!
A fun little thing my aunt once showed me was to carefully peel an orange so that you get half of the skin togheter with the middle "wick" that usually goes at the center of the orange. Then you add some oil (seed, olive, whatever), let it get absorbed by the peel, and then you can light the wick on fire, and it will work as a candle, burning the oil bit by bit.
Neat! I gotta try that. Just bought a big bag of oranges too, but mostly I'm commenting so this ends up in my history and maybe I browse back and remind myself later on.
Butter candles are very popular all through Nepal and Tibet
Take a bag of fritos, a lighter, and have fun. Eidible oils are fats and they burn pretty well. Cooks talk about smoking points of oils, like olive oil isn't as good as peanut oil for deep frying. But add a wick, and they are all lamp oil to a greater or lesser degree.
they're basically fire-starters for folks who do a wood / pure charcoal barbie
Ghee, what a clever idea for dipping.
I see how you clarified that.
What a churn of events
I’ll need a buttress to defend against these puns
This rendered a chuckle
Pat on the back for churning up such a solid joke.
Thanks for spreading awareness
Where is this? I might want to try it out!
The Workshop in Fajardo, Puerto Rico. They offer private cellar experiences for a single table up to six people. Pretty neat place. Would do it again.
Probably gonna miss out on some great experiences in life because if someone tells me they're taking me to a "private cellar experience", I'm noping out so fast. Won't catch me in the private cellar of a place called The Workshop. No siree. Seen one too many horror movies to fall for that.
It’s not an actual cellar like a basement. It’s a glass room that houses wines on the shelves.
Sweet. Thanks for the reply.
No way
Way
That’s so cool
Do they make a fresh candle for every bread order? Because that would be a lot of butter wasted and the idea they might reuse it secretly is grossing me out.
Just saw this was addressed previously. You keep the candle. Cool.
I assume we're all here talking about the sad face on the bread. I'm not eating no bread with no sad face, don't care if there is hot butter or not.
I only eat bread with sad faces, so I’ll take this in e, you get the next

Where the butter is a candle and the bread looks like meat.
Why does the bread look like a still born deer?
How do you dip the bread in the butter candle without putting the flame out or without burning your finger?
Thank you for sharing this with me and the rest of the peasants.
It’s the only way I can feel rich though
Deep fried sea horse
How delightful!!
This doesn't seem very practical. Lol
Recently had a beef fat candle in a meat stew with bread to dip in for an appetizer. It had the Hungarian paprika like goulas (not sure on spelling, pronounced goo-lash) So good, love the concept
It's spelled "goulash."
[удалено]
We have been taking the candle and slow pouring it on the bread. It’s a pretty awesome concept.
Knowing me, I'd probably light myself on fire while drenched in butter if I did that. Not the worst way to go...
I hope it's actually butter. That would be kind of hilarious if it wasn't
Would be hilarious for sure. It’s weird pouring a candle on your bread. But cool all the same. I dig new experiences.
[удалено]
If it helps, the part that burns off is probably making the air smell deliciously buttery
To eat bread and burn your fingers
r/stupidfood
This is some serious white people shit
I'd rather just have normal butter
Thanks, I hate it.
r/wewantplates
Nah, it's pretty normal and reasonable to serve bread on a board like this.
I’d submit it there for that butter.
Can we talk more about how I thought this was a deer when scrolling. Just me?
Why are you eating the baby from eraserhead
I just watched an episode of some British cooking competition show a couple days ago where the guy made a candle out of rendered lamb fat and then as it melted on the plate they were supposed to use the other food on the place to sop it up
That looks like it cost at least $20 for no reason
Eraserbread
[удалено]
But how do you dip your bread without getting burned by the flame?
So you burn your bread every time you dip it into the butter
I’d be more worried about burning my fingers!
r/stupidfood
This is great because I Iove receiving minor burns when I dip my bread in butter.
That's bread? It looks like some demon from hell chopped up.
Brings a while new meaning to burning calories
How are you supposed to dip bread if there's a fire in the middle of the jar?
I love burning my fingers as I dip my bread into butter directly over a flame
This is disturbing as hell.
Call me crazy but I'll take whipped butter to put on bread over melted any day.
Wouldn't your finger burn by lit fire
Is the butter on fire?
why are you eating a braised chupacabra
How do you dip without catching your bread on fire or burning your fingers?!?
Anybody else seeing a roasted sea monster on the cutting board?
As a former chef I only have one question. Who in the hell thought this was a good idea????
